Sleepy Hollow (2013–2017): Season 2, Episode 14 - Kali Yuga - full transcript

With the help of Ichabod, Abbie and Jenny, Nick Hawley faces against his evil childhood caretaker. Captain Frank Irving adjusts to his new "life".

Previously on sleepy hollow...
Abbie:
When we waver in our duty,

Monsters get loose
and people die.

Crane: There is no need
for tempers to flare.

I can't believe you let her
talk you into this.

I did not!

We have a lot
to talk about.

But no, now is
not the time.

Jenny:
He doesn't need a medical exam,

He needs a supernatural one.

Maybe katrina could do it.

Orion:
Should you ever need my aid,



Hold this charm
and think of me.

I can find you.

No matter what
obstacles we face,

No matter how many
disagreements we have,

Our bond cannot be broken.

Abbie:
♪ maybe I'm crazy...

Come on, y'all.

♪ maybe I'm crazy

♪ maybe I'm crazy

♪ probably...

Huzzah!

I had no idea
she performed.

She used to do karaoke

All the time.
♪ probably...



My mom said she had
the voice of an angel.

Sorry, I didn't mean to
bring up a sore spot.

Oh, orion? No.

The rogue angel orion
was dealt with.

The lieutenant and I
made our peace.

Okay, good.

Just seems you two

Have been spending

A lot less time together lately.

Has she said something?

No.

Right.

Well, then,
we've moved forward.

♪ ooh.
Crane:
Brava!

Brava!
(crowd cheering)

(whoops)

All right, mm-hmm,
okay, yeah.

Crane, pick a song.
Ah.

Where might I find
the catch club?

What are they?

Beatles from 1760s?

No.

Rather, the beatles were
the catch club of the 1960s,

Thank you.
(jenny laughs)

Women swooned

At the sound of their warbling.

Alas, lost to history.

Well, everyone's got at least
one good karaoke song in them.

What's your go-to, nick?
'70s rock?
(phone vibrates)

"oops, I did it again"?

(chuckles)

Well, as much as I would love
to serenade y'all,

Looks like my
answer's clear.

Time to go. Got a line
on some rare shurikens.

Jenny:
Throwing stars?

Taisho or showa period?

Mckenna claims they're edo.

Patrick mckenna
brokered the deal?

85% chance

That weasel's
selling you knockoffs.

15% chance they're real.

Want some company?

Nah, it's a short hop.

Be back before
you finish your drink.

If you're late,
I pick your song.

(laughs)

(engine revs)

(engine stops)

Where's mckenna?

Carmilla.

What are you doing here?

Is that any way to greet
the woman who raised you?

I'm pretty sure
you got the message.

I've been
avoiding you

For about a decade.

Yes.

You take care.

It's more complicated than that.

Look,

Nicky...

This is hard
for me, too.

I wouldn't be here
if I didn't have to be.

What do you need,
carmilla?

Second story guy?
Courier?

Call carter
or jesse.

I have.

Carter's doing five to ten
for a b and e.

Jesse's dead.

The job's here
in sleepy hollow.

We're gonna rob
theodore knox's estate.

Knox?

You mean, like...

Fort knox?

It'll be just you and me.

What I've gotten
myself into...

My life's on the line now.

No.

I'm sorry.
It's too weird.

Out of the blue.

(growling)

That's the way life is.

You owe me, nicky.

Time to repay your debt.

♪ as I was a-walking

♪ down by the locke hospital

(microphone feedback hums)

♪ cold was the morning

♪ and dark was the day

(whoops)
♪ and who should I spy...

Not exactly
billboard top 100.

The talent is there,
he just needs new material.

♪ wrapped in a blanket...

Cheer loudly. He's been through
the wringer lately.

Well, you guys were
on opposite sides

Of a pretty major
split about headless.

You know, katrina was right
to free abraham when she did.

Turns out that orion

Was about to go biblical

On sleepy hollow.
Hmm.

But you and crane are okay?

You talked it out?

We're fine.

And are you
lecturing me

About communicating?
I communicate.

That's what's happening
now between us.

Then you can tell me what's
going on between you and hawley.

Nothing.

♪ so play the drums slowly...

Maybe a little bit
more than that.

Which is why it's weird

He hasn't responded
to my phone calls or texts.

He said he'd only be gone
a little while.

He might have just
lost track of time.

No.

No, hawley wouldn't
blow me off like that.

♪ for he's a young sailor

♪ cut down in his prime.

Woman:
Yeah!
Thank you.

(scattered applause)

(whoops)

Perhaps I should have done

The one about the bass,
about the bass.

(laughs)

Everything all right?

Hawley's a no-show.

Oh, well, no great surprise.

He'll show up again
in a fortnight.
Crane...

He told jenny that
he was coming back tonight.

Ah.

Well, he is a man of his word.
We should investigate.

(phone vibrating)

That's gonna have to wait.

There's been a breach
at the archives.

When did that happen?

Just now.

Silent alarm was triggered.

I didn't know we had an alarm.

I installed one
when you moved out.

Oh.

(clattering, running footsteps)

Jenny, wait!

Hawley!

Go back!
I'll explain later.

What did you take?
What are you doing?

Just back off, mills!

She's desperate
and she's dangerous.

Who? Hawley!

Hawley!

(snarls)
(screams)

(gasps, growls)

(growling)

What the hell was that?

Judge:
The last few months

Have been a real roller coaster,
mr. Irving.

You have fled the police,

Led your own department
on a statewide manhunt,

Committed perjury...

Your honor, we have proven

That mr. Irving's confession
was signed under duress.

Don't interrupt me, counselor.

Or do you prefer "mrs. Irving"?

I understand it's unorthodox
to represent a family member...

But she's the best
defense attorney I know.

I tried going
with an outside firm.

That didn't work out so well.

Based on my readings,

The state isn't pursuing
any charges?

No, ma'am.

Then I have no choice,
based on the new evidence.

This court

Has determined that the
defendant, franklin irving...

Shall be exonerated
of all charges.

(whispers):
My god, frank.

I'm free.

(irving and cynthia chuckle)

Irving:
I can't believe it.

I'm finally coming home
to you and macey.

It's over.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

It's... It's nothing.

We should have katrina examine
the creature's residue.

It was dripping
off of her claws.

Like some sort of
supernatural venom.

I had it analyzed already.

Oh, that was quick.

It's a mix of sialic
and hydrofluoric acid.

This stuff could
burn through anything.

Claws secreting acidic venom.

Vetala.

An undead human being

Of hindu lore
that serves kali,

Goddess of death

And regeneration.

Who is crazy fast,
has inhuman strength

And is immortal.

How did hawley get involved
with a vetala?

He went home with a succubus,
remember?

Guy gets around.

Oh. He mentioned, uh,

The guy who brokered the deal--
mckenna.

Yeah, he's a local fence.

His front is
a pawnshop in town.

We need to pay him a visit
and see what he knows.

And the archives?

Hawley clearly took
something of value.

Finding it should
lead to finding him.

Yeah, but we don't
want to lose mckenna.

This mess will still be
here when we get back.

Well, then, in the words
of philip ii of macedon,

"divide et impera."

Divide and conquer.
That's a good plan.

Time is of the essence.

Katrina can assist me
in finding hawley

Whilst you two find mckenna.

See you later, crane.

(doorbells jingle)
jenny: This is mckenna's place.

The guy
who set up hawley.

Mckenna:
Give me a minute.

So, I take it you and crane
still haven't talked.

You were there.

We worked it out.

"divide and conquer."

You really think
you two

Work better apart than together?

Look, he's trying
to figure out

His relationship with his witch
wife while they're mourning

Their horseman-of-war
son's death,

Which I'm guessing
is pretty complicated.

So, I am not gonna
sweat the small stuff.

It's not gonna
stay small forever, abbie.

Mckenna:
How can I help?

Jenny mills.

Abbie mills.

Sheriff's department.

How about you tell me

Who paid you to
set up nick hawley?

No idea what you're
talking about, ma'am.

Okay. Let's go. Precinct.

I'm sure I can find a
violation or two around here.

Unless you have prints
and I.D.S for every item?

Come on. You bring me downtown,
I'm still not gonna talk.

And you've just wasted
a day on paperwork.

What is this,
good cop, bad cop?

I'm not a cop.

Did you see that, abbie?

This guy just tried
to assault me!

What's that? Ten years
given his priors?

It was a woman.
I don't know her name.

Ow! Okay! Carmilla.

Carmilla pines.

And you delivered hawley to her?

If anything happens to him...
Okay.

Okay. Who is carmilla pines?

She's a treasure hunter.

But not like hawley.

She's dangerous. A killer.

And she turns the task
into a leisure activity

With a rather
lively ditty.

So, she sings,
she cleans, she...

Travels by parasol...

A modern witch
specializing in housework.

It hardly sounds progressive.

Oh, no, no.

Miss poppins seems
quite fulfilled.

What is it?

This charm...

Is a duplicate of the halo blade
wielded by the angel orion.

That sigil is a beacon,
used to call upon an angel.

Miss mills must have
received it from him

And... Kept it from me.

As she did when she first
allied herself with him.

(door opens)

Abbie:
Got a name on our vetala.

Carmilla pines--
notorious treasure hunter.

Abbie: And hawley's
legal guardian from 12 to 18.

So mr. Hawley was raised
by a criminal

Who is also a monster?

I believe I've discovered
what carmilla is after.

Hawley filched
architectural designs

Belonging to henry knox.
As in fort knox?

Well, before they named
a fort after him,

He was a
revolutionary hero.

Built a home nearby
used to safeguard

Weapons and supplies
from the british.

And now hawley has
the blueprints.

Knox had a singular obsession:

Locks and puzzles.

He built

The vault in his estate
with the sons of liberty,

A boston spy ring, to ensure
that the colonists' weapons

Were protected
to the upmost security.

The contents in knox's vault
were considered very dangerous.

They still are.

The estate belongs
to his heir now.

I've heard of him--
theodore knox.

He collects black market

Antiques and weapons.

Rumor is he has
an entire storehouse

Of occult items at his place.

So whatever carmilla's
after in the vault...

Is something we dare not
let her have.

Hawley: Original architecture
designs from the knox estate.

Direct from a 1775
sons of liberty folio.

Now, this symbol
in the corner

Represents a lever lock system.

Its tumblers for the vault--
they run

Through the walls
of the entire house,

Making the house
like a fortress.

One big safe.

And this is how you crack it.

Impressive, nicky.

Who were those people
in the tunnels?

Don't worry about them.

I did what you asked.

Now, tell me,
what the hell happened to you?

It was after you ran off...

I ran because I saw you
murder someone.

And that was
before you were whatever

The hell you are now.

I tried to protect you.

You ran.
I saw you.

The way you killed him,
carmilla.

That wasn't the first time.

How could I have stayed?

I came looking
for you, you know.

Tracked you to mumbai.

But I got caught
by a thuggee death cult.

And they turned me
into this... Thing.

Don't put this on me.

This is what they did to me.

It's the mark
of the vetala.

(sighs)

When I got wind
that you were here,

I left you alone.

I didn't want to
burden you with this.

But knox has an artifact

That could give
me back my life.

I got you the blueprints.

You're on your own
for the rest.

Did you hear me?

I'm the only family
you have left.

The artifact in knox's vault
will make me human again.

Look at me.

Help me.

One last time.

One and done.

"one and done."

(engine revving)

You enjoying yourself,
speed racer?

It's my first time
driving a car

With real horsepower.
Can you blame me?

Oh, and on the subject.

Is said power
referring to a horse

Of arabian, turkoman
or barb breeding?

There is a difference.

Whichever horse is fastest.

Knox's swap meet
started an hour ago.

If you scratch
hawley's car,

Serves him right.

How did mr. Hawley come to
be raised by carmilla pines?

When he was 12,

A few days before christmas,
his parents died in an accident.

She was his godmother.

He always described her
as this kind of

Female indiana jones type.
She couldn't have

Been a vetala then.
Something happened between them.

It seemed like
he really missed her.

But you know hawley.
He never talked about it.

Are we certain this carmilla
will strike tonight?

Knox holds these

Black market exchanges
a couple times a year.

It's the perfect distraction
for carmilla to make her move.

Unusual crowd, loose guest list.

To knox, it's not who you are,
it's what you have.

So these are our invitations.

When carmilla arrives
on the property,

She will make her way
to the vault.

Unless she's waiting
for a specific time.

We need to surveil
the place first.

And at all costs,
we must stay together.

(tires screeching)

Talk to me.

It's the only way we're
gonna make it through this.

Okay.

You were dead, frank.

We saw
where you were buried.

We put flowers on your grave.

We mourned you.

And now you're here and you're
sleeping next to me again.

I just...

I just need to know
if it's really you.

You think henry still has
some sort of hold on my soul?

I don't know.

But I'm scared, frank.

We're supposed
to pick up macey

Tomorrow from
my parents, but...

I need to know for sure
that my husband's back.

What do you want me to do?

I don't have an
explanation for this.

Only the fact that I am alive.

Remember what abbie said?

At the precinct?

I know abbie and crane aren't
your favorite people right now.

But abbie told me
katrina could help us.

Man (over p.A.): Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen...

Carmilla: I don't know
if I said this before, but...

Thank you, nicky.

Hey. I'm here for you.

This job is no different
from the others.

Knox is an overweight,
entitled black market thief.

We're just stealing
what was already stolen.

Jenny: There's knox
with the belly dancers.

See right there?

Carmilla and hawley.

We can't lose them.

Jenny, you take hawley.

Crane and I will take carmilla.

Excuse me.

That's, uh, quite the bow
you've got there.

Black walnut stock,

Forged medieval limbs.

I say late 15th century.

Thank you.

Uh, teddy knox.

Huh?
Of course you are.

The resemblance is uncanny.

Uh, I've seen images
of your ancestors.

Excuse me.
Uh...

How can you just
wear it like that?

Linen with patriot blue...

Crane?
...Facing.

Ah, late 18th century,

Mint condition...

Okay.

(mechanical clanking)

(mechanical rumbling)

Thank you, sons of liberty.

(gun cocks)

Jenny: So your
aunt's a monster.

Mills.

Damn it, I told you before,
you got to get out of here.

What is carmilla
stealing from knox?

I don't ask questions

When I don't want
to know the answers.

That's not good enough
for me, and I thought

You were better
than that, too.

It's like you said--
she's a monster.

I don't have a lot
of other options.

You have us.
We can fight her.

I'm not gonna
let you say no.

Okay, fine.
Come on, quick.

I'm trying to help you!

I know, mills,
and thank you, but...

For your own good,
stay out of this.

(pounding on door)

(eerie voice whispering)



(gunshot)

(growling)

(abbie gasping)

Lieutenant?!

Unhand her.

Now.

You shoot, she dies.

No!

Don't!

Stop!

Hey.

We got what you wanted.

Let's go.

This one is police.

Harm her,

And you will seal your fate.

There's another way to do this.

You let them live,

They promise not
to come after you...

...And I'll stay.

I'll stay with you.

Abbie: Hawley,
what are you doing?

There are three of us
and one of her.

Hawley:
It's not gonna work like that.

Carmilla, you taught me
to make deals,

Not mistakes.

I don't trust them.

We lock them in the vault.

Knox comes by
in a day or so,

But by then

We'll be halfway
across the globe.

Crane:
Mr. Hawley.

When we first met,
I considered you

Nothing but a
faithless privateer.

But I have come to know you
as a man of courage,

A man of compassion.

A man who fights
for his friends.

Maybe you had it right
the first time.

We have a deal?

Deal.

Hawley, don't do this.

I'll make sure
knox knows you're in here.

We're coming after you.

Don't.

I mean that.

We need a way
out of here.

Can we contact
miss jenny?

Not without
cell service.

Not to add to our stresses,

But I recognize
the statue carmilla stole.

The bajrayogini statue of kali.

Yeah, I saw it, too, in
the hindu book of lore.

It's one of a kind.

And also the key

To a dark ceremony
that turns humans into vetalas.

How did we end
up here anyway?

We were bush-league
upstairs.

You went after carmilla
without me.

I thought
you were going to wait.

I thought you were signaling
me to follow her and move on.

That was the plan.

I thought the plan was
for us to stick together.

Clearly, our signals
were crossed.

Another failure
of communication

To add to our list.

What is that
supposed to mean?

Well, it means the roster
of our missteps is growing

To karaoke catalog-sized
proportions.

Does this have
anything to do

With me not mentioning the
silent alarm in the archives?

An excellent idea.

As was taking
the toxins to the lab.

Yeah, I didn't intend
to keep it from you;

We're just moving fast.

Agreed, and neither
require my consent.

But I cannot help but wonder

Why you did not
share with me

Orion's sigil.

We should pause this discussion
until we have found a way out.

I've developed
rather a distaste

For being trapped
in small spaces.

You were a real hero
to your friends back there.

Well, I meant
what I said.

Look, whatever you've become,
it doesn't change the fact

That you took me in
when I had no one.

I shouldn't have left.

I know that now.

I owed you
better than that.

I wish I could
believe you.

I truly do.

No...

(groans)

(hawley coughs)

This whole thing's a con.

You won't abandon me again,
nicky.

We were family.

And thanks
to the goddess kali,

We will be again.

Knox would have built an exit.

Fail-safe in case
he locked himself inside.

Hmm.

The liberty tree.

The sons of liberty
used this symbol, which may...

Aha.

Knobs.

These must control the hinges.

But how are they...?

All right.

Each knob is marked
with an alchemical symbol.

Push the correct knob,
the door will open.

We don't know
which one that is.

If we choose wrong...

Then I doubt we leave
the vault alive.

Quandary, indeed.

About the sigil,

I should have told you.

Orion gave it to me,
I used it to find him.

Felt like bringing it up
after the fact

Was opening
a can of worms.

I thought it was over.

So did I.

Okay, you are by no means
the only one responsible.

I decided abraham was worthy of
saving without consulting you.

Perhaps we both decided it was
easier to act than to talk.

Yeah.

These problems have always
resolved themselves in the past.

What if this is indicative
of something larger?

What if we're not as
good partners today

As we were in the past?

Maybe our whole thing
has started to go awry.

Even in times
of great peril...

...We could always rely
on one another.

But in the past few weeks,

Today,

I have felt our bond
sorely tested.

Are you having
a moment?

I believe I am.

The thought of
testing a bond.

During the war, henry knox's
greatest achievement was

Stealing british cannons
from ticonderoga.

Cannons that
were bonded...

...In iron.

(mechanical whirring)

Oh, my.

One time you're wrong.

What are the damn odds?

I'll admit, I was excited,
I may have acted rashly.

I'll make sure to put that
on your tombstone.

We're not gonna die
in knox's vault,

Even if it goes all...

Star wars trash compactor
on us.

Star wars? What did they use?

They had a robot.
Ah.

You knew knox
better than anyone.

Which of these chemicals
would he have picked?

Knox was a student of alchemy.
He could've found reason

To choose any one
of these chemicals.

Forget about the war hero
and the student.

What did the man love?

Uh-uh, gambling.

Cards, horse racing--
he was addicted.

He died penniless trying
to line his pockets with gold.

Gold! Gold.

(machinery stops)

(sighs)

We seriously named fort knox

After a dude who died in debt.

Well, he had other
redeeming qualities.

Abbie.

Where were you?

Hawley locked me in a closet.

He locked us in a death trap.

I'm gonna kick his ass.

Where's carmilla?

She left with a hindu statue.

That can turn people
into vetalas.

I think one
vetala's enough.

Yes, which is why we need
to find her.

Hawley stole my cell phone.

Ten bucks says he still has it.

Which means we can track it.

(engine revving)

It's not exactly
the ritz-carlton.

I'll do a sweep
of the perimeter,

See how many guys
we're up against.

We need to find a way
to defeat carmilla

Once and for all.

We need to find
that statue.

The statue.

Of course.

Kali has six hands,
four of them holding items

And two of them
in specific positions.

Mudras.

The symbolic language of gesture
in hinduism and buddhism.

Thank you, yoga class.

I'm still not going back.

So, the top left hand
was positioned like this.

Privthi.

Symbol of life.

And the right hand, tarjani.

Symbol for destruction.

The bottom two hands
on the right arms

Had a torch and an iron stone.

There it is.

Carmilla fled the tunnels

Because of the open flame
on your torch

And the iron tips
to these bolts.

Abbie: We can kill her
with iron and fire.

(carmilla chanting)

(heart beating)

(growls)

(screaming)

(chanting continues)

The statue works.

Carmilla, please,

Think about what you're doing.

You once told me
I made you a better person.

I'm not a person anymore, nicky.

I know it's hard
for you to see now.

But you'll thank me later.

Shh.

Oh, you're gonna love death,
nicky.

(hawley screaming)

Soon, the last of kali's
tears will be wept.

Then the statue will take us
through the final journey.

(footsteps approaching)

Step away from him!

(grunting)

(chanting)

(grunting)

(chanting)

(groans)

(growls)

(chanting)

(groaning)

(grunts)

Come on.

(growling)

(screeching)

(growling)

Nicky.

You can't.
I'm sorry.

(carmilla screeching)

(door opens)

(sighs)
oh.

So this is the welcome
I get from now on.

Can't say I blame you.

You come bearing gifts?

Well, friends don't steal
from friends, right?

Look, jenny,

Now you know why I...

Keep my distance.

I get it.

She was your family.

But you also have a family

Here in sleepy hollow.

You know that, right?

Thank you.

I mean that.

You're leaving, aren't you?

Mills, I put you in danger.

Betrayed your trust.

I, uh... I can't be here.

I'm gonna hunt her down.

You know, I'd ask you
to come with me...

Except you know what I'd say.

So what happened when
we were in the vault?

Are we good?

We are.

We are far greater
than the sum of our parts,

But we cannot rely
on our bond to last

Unless we tend to it.

Damn straight. That's why

I thought it's time
we do a duet.

Announcer:
Next up is abbie and ichabod.

Lieutenant,
you learned my shanty.
Mm.

No, song's called "proud mary,"
but you can do it.

You just killed a vetala.

You can handle
a little rock and roll.

Come on.

Katrina:
This ceremony

Will dig into the very fabric
of your being,

Which may be unpleasant
and dangerous.

It might be best
if you stood back.

I just want my family
to know that I'm free

And clear of henry's influence.

Where is henry?

Excuse me?

The fact that you are here
in the flesh

Tells me that my son
is still alive.

Where is he?

I have no idea
what you're talking about.



Whatever magic bound you
to the horseman of war

Is gone.

I cannot say
how you came back to life,

Only that my son has
no influence on your soul.

I think we got ourselves
a miracle.

(chuckles)

Promise me, this is the start
of a new chapter of our lives.

Oh, baby.

I guarantee it.

(laughs)
